KP is great and he doesn't even have to play super-efficiently to help the offense as a whole be significantly better. A guy like that who can play the 5 effectively and shoot 3s four steps behind the 3-point line is incredible. He creates so much space. Even if he is having an off shooting night it's hard to leave him open from 3. KP can also improve his game. His shot selection is not always great. There is room for him to take better shots and be more efficient.
KP and Luka are the perfect pairing in my view and the only concern is injury which is significant. I still think it's too early to say that KP is always going to be injured or suffer career-altering surgeries on his knees. I love his game and love it for the modern NBA.
If you are trying to guard KP and put a big on him you are going to draw him out of the paint (Don Nelson's long sought after dream). KP can also run by bigs pretty easily. If you have to go small then you lose rebounding and shot blocking on the other end in most cases. KP doesn't do great against smaller players that he should be bullying or shooting over but he will figure it out.
